October 13th 2012 - NHRDA World Finals

It looks to be raining anyway. Right before my favorite class too. Damn.

Armor inc and stucky were lined up to race but truck in front latest down flood so once it got cleaned up they decided to announce the show and shine winner instead trying knock out few more rounds.
 
That's ridiculous! I'm not gonna say much more about it, but I don't think it would have been the same, if the tables were turned.
 
At least thats my understanding of what happened. That's just speculation as I'm not there.
 
Hey guys this is Ben Shadday. I did indeed get disqualified but is was because I was not licensed for the ets I was turning. Until today I had been a low 10 second truck. I made a lot of changes for the world finals but didn't have time to get licensed. I raced robs buddy with the dodge and after that I was called to the tower and warned if I went faster than 10.00 I would be disqualified. However the competitor in me I had to beat rob and in doing that I went 9.73. Very happy with the weekend and it has been a lot of fun. I spoke with rob and his buddy as well and everything is good. I did pedal the truck to a 9.73 so really excited to get licensed and run a full pass out the back door. Really excited about next year and all ducks will be in a row and rob and I will see each other again.
 
I just talked to Ben and got his side of the story. Maybe Rob can give us his side.

Nice pass! These things happen, good to see you beat Rob to the stripe!
 
That was a hell of an awesome pass regardless, Ben! Next year will be in your favor, I'm sure.
 
Good to hear the full story. I'm glad to see a lot of competition in Super Street. Congrats to all the winnera
 
Had a fantastic time today!
Went pot first round if super diesel with a red light..apparently everyone was having problems at one time or another..
